How come all nice food is bad for us? Posted by Tikay10
I have often wondered this!
It is not just the sugar laden stuff either but red meat, greasy food etc. You never hear of anyone saying 'oh I could really go a lettuce or some rice crackers just now'. If all the junk food was good for you I would probably look like a Chippendale.
Hope the recovery continues positively and good luck for the assessment!

You have to be tall to be a Chippendale. I auditioned for the Blobbendales once, and was told I was 3 inches too short
On a more serious note, GL Mr K. Keep off the cigs, and keep carefully rationing the exclamation marks (!!!)
Hope ALL goes well tikay, my husband has been unwell and I took him to a private hospital on Tuesday,it was urgent so that was why he was sent there,by the nhs, he was looked after so well even with me sobbing my heart out he would go back tomorrow, had some major jests taken but the surgeon was so kind to me understood why I was so upset, so tony my husband lets stay positive and everthing will be ok xxx
Tony my husband has never smoked does not drink alcohol but his younger brother passed away in 2008 from cancer,he was only 46, that was why they sorted so fast
Listen to your body, health is the most precious thing we have and as you know I've had a bit of experience in this area the last couple of years. I cannot stress enough how much rest and recouperation you are going to need, even on the odd day that you feel top of the world still take it easy. Time is needed and no one can say how long that time is, while I'm not saying you should stop living your life and doing the wonderful things that you and Gill do, and am advocating scaling back and reconsidering if you should do it beforehand.
Take care my friend, always here if you ever need anything.
i'm pleased to hear of your continuing recovery. my bit to contribute is to urge you not to push the envelope. more the point, keep well within it. an envelope within the envelop.
Afternoon all. Other people's tales of illness & the like are as interesting as other folks holiday photos, so I had not planned to mention it any more. However, so many people have sent me messages & PM's, so it seems rude not to reply. Going to Drive the Prize in Manchester was a big mistake, it was way too soon. I never did much - anything - but it was a 20 hour day all told, & it was too soon, & it set me back a week or two. I then spent 2 weeks sleeping almost non-stop, & it's only the last few days I've started to feel a little better. Unlike me, but I'm way behind with PM replies, I just can't find the energy to deal with them all. Yesterday & today, at last, I've felt better, & I'm starting to work through the backlog now. Big thanks to Sky Poker, who basically told me to do nothing & just rest up. I've quit smoking - rather belatedly, but better late than never - & come tomorrow, it'll be 4 weeks since I last smoked. I have to eat "properly" now too, white meat, fish, eggs, but no sticky buns. How come all nice food is bad for us? On Monday, I return to hospital to be assessed to see if I am ready for Cardiac Rehab. I'm sure I will be, I feel so much better today. After doing almost no work for a month, UKOPS starts on Tuesday, & I plan to be blogging every day. Can't wait, it's good to be back. Thank you to all those who sent messages of support, here on this thread, via PM, text & e-Mail. It meant a great deal, thank you. On we go, oioi. Posted by Tikay10

and great news with the non-smoking - you know it makes sense. As for all the rest of that pernickity dieting and that, you can tell them where to shove it.
Phew, glad to hear you are feeling a little better, and although I/we/everybody miss your smiley face please dont rush back, for once, listen to what everyone says and take it easy. (was going to put exclamation marks there but thought that might raise the blood presure too much).
Do you want some good news? Of course you do, well, you remember that young pretty girl that used to follow me around to all the SPT's, Im sure you do (I'm pretty sure she had the hots for you at one point;)), well, all being well in October she is going to present me with my first grandchild!!!! (now that deserves the exclamation marks!!!)

Awesome news Amarie and congratulations. Hope everything goes smoothly.
Told you (no exclamation marks needed) You needed to take it easy. (really resisting the urge to put exclamation marks and it's getting harder) Sleep is the best healing process for the body. You take it easy and don't over do it. Take care you, this place may be quieter without you, but would rather it be quiet and you resting than anything else.
